Bad news for David Axelrod: Martin Short thinks you’re a little bit chubby.

The comedian appeared on “The Late Show” Tuesday night and described a scene from April’s White House Correspondents’ weekend.

“Afterwards, there’s a hip party at the French ambassador’s quarters and there’s [actor] Richard Kind and he has his back to me and he’s talking to George Clooney, they’re old friends. So I go up to Richard Kind and I got up and I put my arms around him and say, ‘Oooh, Papa’s gained a little weight, hasn’t he?’ And he turns around and it’s not Richard Kind. It’s David Axelrod.”

“It was just horrible, horrible, just terrible,” said Short.

The goof explains Short’s general thoughts about Washington’s big event: “I really shouldn’t be allowed it. I just make faux pas. I don’t know anyone. I panic when I see people.”
